Home after 1460 miles. All systems worked as intended. Spooky the cat was outstanding as usual, he's a different cat when camping especially when there's kids nearby.
His appetite while on the road is amazing. `13 days, 18 5.5 oz cans of cat food plus dry.

Our feral cat population grew by 1 while gone (neighbor fed them) . Our newest is a kitten we call Zorro and he's number 3. Began socializing as soon as we got home, next is neutering.

This trip makes it 17,000 miles we've driven 2K4S since we bought her in October '15. What a great trip it's been!

congratulations - that's quite an achievement in a short period of time - I wonder if you had the same sort of sensation as I did after driving almost 11,000 miles traveling to races on back to back weekends one winter - I felt like I had a one ton truck grafted to my tail bone - lol

Spooky the cat has growth surges, while on vacation he ate almost twice what he has been. The table he's laying on is 18in..

Looks like you will be needing a dinner table for Spooky before long.

Crappy pic but the improvement in comfort is major.

Nice to sit IN the seat instead of ON the seat.

Had to cancel last month's glampout due to weather. Tomorrow we make a run to Lake Pleasant for 3 nights in warmer temps than home. Lows in the 40s instead of 20s. No hookups so it's solar/gen only. Merry Christmas to all.

Stayed home, too cold even at the lake. No sense sitting the bus all day to stay warm. Next trip= Skooliepalooza 2020!
